Just because you personally will not be able to get the groups is no reason
to deny the rest of us these new newsgroups.  There are many ways for you to
get newsgroups outside of your "Department".

On the contrary, I am now getting somewhere around 80 messages a day on
comp.sys.apple2 alone, and the majority of them are meaningless to me. 
Seperating them by topic would make things much easier to manage.
